slowly into a shadow

dusk arising

 

 

 

Evening falls to dusk.
Easily, sleep overtakes.
And my mind stumbles
slowly, into a shadow
where once I lingered.
Sillohettes of memory
begin and illuminate.
as warmth of colour,
heartfelt, enlights such
days past, here again.
Vivid and new. As the
child within my mind
runs again free beneath
the rainbow of youth.
Perhaps to bring a smile
to a snoring aged face
where once an angel
placed an unforgotten kiss.

    What a wonderful expression of memories of youth coming on gently as if in the onset of sleep and drifting into a dream. Very well written. I think this is one of your better poems.
